General Description
These microprocessor (µP) supervisory circuits reduce the
complexity and number of components required for pow-
er-supply monitoring and battery-control functions in µP
systems. They significantly improve system reliability and
accuracy compared to separate ICs or discrete components.
These devices are designed for use in systems powered
by 3.0V or 3.3V supplies. See the selector guide in the
back of this data sheet for similar devices designed for
5V systems. The suffixes denote different reset threshold
voltages: 3.075V (T), 2.925V (S), and 2.625V (R) (see the
Reset Threshold section in the Detailed Description). All
these parts are available in 8-pin DIP and SO packages.

Note 1: VCC supply current, logic input leakage, watchdog functionality (MAX690_/802_/805_/804_), MR functionality
(MAX704_/806_), PFI functionality, state of RESET (MAX690_/704_/802_/806_), and RESET (MAX804_/805_) tested at
VBATT = 3.6V, and VCC = 5.5V. The state of RESET or RESET and PFO is tested at VCC = VCC min.
Note 2: Tested at VBATT = 3.6V, VCC = 3.5V and 0V. The battery current will rise to 10µA over a narrow transition window around
VCC = 1.9V.
Note 3:
Leakage current into the battery is tested under the worst-case conditions at VCC = 5.5V, VBATT = 1.8V and at VCC = 1.5V,
VBATT= 1.0V.
Note 4: Guaranteed by design.
Note 5: When VSW > VCC > VBATT, VOUT remains connected to VCC until VCC drops below VBATT. The VCC-to-VBATT compara-
tor has a small 25mV typical hysteresis to prevent oscillation. For VCC < 1.75V (typ), VOUT switches to VBATT regardless
of the voltage on VBATT.
Note 6: When VBATT > VCC > VSW, VOUT remains connected to VCC until VCC drops below the battery switch threshold (VSW).
Note 7: VOUT switches from VBATT to VCC when VCC rises above the reset threshold, independent of VBATT. Switchover back to
VCC occurs at the exact voltage that causes RESET to go high (on the MAX804_/805_, RESET goes low); however
switchover occurs 200ms prior to reset.
Note 8: The reset threshold tolerance is wider for VCC rising than for VCC falling to accommodate the 10mV typical hysteresis,
which prevents internal oscillation.
Note 9: The leakage current into or out of the RESET pin is tested with RESET asserted (RESET output high impedance).

Typical Operating Characteristics
Detailed Description
Reset Output
A microprocessor’s (µP’s) reset input starts the µP in a
known state. These µP supervisory circuits assert reset
to prevent code execution errors during power-up, power-
down, brownout conditions, or a watchdog timeout.
RESET is guaranteed to be a logic low for 0V < VCC <
VRST, provided that VBATT is greater than 1V. Without a
backup battery, RESET is guaranteed valid for VCC > 1V.
Once VCC exceeds the reset threshold, an internal timer
keeps RESET low for the reset timeout period; after this
interval, RESET goes high (Figure 2).
If a brownout condition occurs (VCC dips below the reset
threshold), RESET goes low. Each time RESET is assert-
ed, it stays low for the reset timeout period. Any time VCC
goes below the reset threshold, the internal timer restarts.
The watchdog timer can also initiate a reset. See the
Watchdog Input section.
The MAX804_/MAX805_ active-high RESET output is
open drain, and the inverse of the MAX690_/MAX704_/
MAX802_/MAX806_ RESET output.
Reset Threshold
The MAX690T/MAX704T/MAX805T are intended for 3.3V
systems with a ±5% power-supply tolerance and a 10%
system tolerance. Except for watchdog faults, reset will
not assert as long as the power supply remains above
3.15V (3.3V - 5%). Reset is guaranteed to assert before
the power supply falls below 3.0V.
The MAX690S/MAX704S/MAX805S are designed for
3.3V ±10% power supplies. Except for watchdog faults,
they are guaranteed not to assert reset as long as the
supply remains above 3.0V (3.3V - 10%). Reset is
guaranteed to assert before the power supply falls below
2.85V (VCC - 14%).
The MAX690R/MAX704R/MAX805R are optimized for
monitoring 3.0V ±10% power supplies. Reset will not
occur until VCC falls below 2.7V (3.0V - 10%), but is
guaranteed to occur before the supply falls below 2.59V
(3.0V - 14%).
The MAX802R/S/T, MAX804R/S/T, and MAX806R/S/T are
respectively similar to the MAX690R/S/T, MAX805R/S/T,
and MAX704R/S/T, but with tightened reset and power-fail
threshold tolerances.

1 1 1 VOUT
Supply Output for CMOS RAM. When VCC is above the reset threshold, VOUT is
connected to VCC through a p-channel MOSFET switch. When VCC falls below VSW and
VBATT, VBATT connects to VOUT. Connect to VCC if no battery is used.
2 2 2 VCC Main Supply Input
3 3 3 GND Ground
4 4 4 PFI Power-Fail Input. When PFI is less than VPFT or when VCC falls below VSW, PFO goes
low; otherwise, PFO remains high. Connect to ground if unused.
5 5 5 PFO Power-Fail Output. When PFI is less than VPFT, or VCC falls below VSW, PFO goes low;
otherwise, PFO remains high. Leave open if unused.
6 6 WDI
Watchdog Input. If WDI remains high or low for 1.6s, the internal watchdog timer runs out
and reset is triggered. The internal watchdog timer clears while reset is asserted or when
WDI sees a rising or falling edge. The watchdog function cannot be disabled.
6 MR
Manual Reset Input. A logic low on MR asserts reset. Reset remains asserted as long as
MR is low and for 200ms after MR returns high. This active-low input has an internal
70µA pullup current. It can be driven from a TTL or CMOS logic line, or shorted to ground
with a switch. Leave open if unused.
7 7 RESET
Active-Low Reset Output. Pulses low for 200ms when triggered, and stays low whenever
VCC is below the reset threshold or when MR is a logic low. It remains low for 200ms
after either VCC rises above the reset threshold, the watchdog triggers a reset, or MR
goes from low to high.
7 RESET Active-High, Open-Drain Reset Output is the inverse of RESET.
8 8 8 VBATT
Backup-Battery Input. When VCC falls below VSW and VBATT, VOUT switches from VCC
to VBATT. When VCC rises above the reset threshold, VOUT reconnects to VCC. VBATT
may exceed VCC. Connect to VCC if no battery is used.

Pin Description
Watchdog Input (MAX690_/802_/804_/805_)
The watchdog circuit monitors the µP’s activity. If the µP
does not toggle the watchdog input (WDI) within 1.6sec,
a reset pulse is triggered. The internal 1.6sec timer is
cleared by either a reset pulse or by a transition (low-to-
high or high-to-low) at WDI. If WDI is tied high or low, a
RESET pulse is triggered every 1.8sec (tWD plus tRS).
As long as reset is asserted, the timer remains cleared
and does not count. As soon as reset is deasserted, the
timer starts counting. Unlike the 5V MAX690 family, the
watchdog function cannot be disabled.
Power-Fail Comparator
The PFI input is compared to an internal reference. If
PFI is less than VPFT, PFO goes low. The power-fail
comparator is intended for use as an undervoltage
detector to signal a failing power supply. However,
the comparator does not need to be dedicated to this
function because it is completely separate from the rest
of the circuitry.
The power-fail comparator turns off and PFO goes low
when VCC falls below VSW on power-down. The power-
fail comparator turns on as VCC crosses VSW on power-
up. If the comparator is not used, connect PFI to ground
and leave PFO unconnected. PFO can be connected to
MR on the MAX704_/MAX806_ so that a low voltage on
PFI will generate a reset (Figure 5b).

Backup-Battery Switchover
In the event of a brownout or power failure, it may be
necessary to preserve the contents of RAM. With a back-
up battery installed at VBATT, the devices automatically
switch RAM to backup power when VCC falls.
This family of µP supervisors (designed for 3.3V and 3V
systems) doesn’t always connect VBATT to VOUT when
VBATT is greater than VCC. VBATT connects to VOUT
(through a 140Ω switch) when VCC is below VSW and
VBATT is greater than VCC, or when VCC falls below
1.75V (typ) regardless of the VBATT voltage. This is done
to allow the backup battery (e.g., a 3.6V lithium cell) to
have a higher voltage than VCC.
Switchover at VSW (2.40V) ensures that battery-backup
mode is entered before VOUT gets too close to the 2.0V
minimum required to reliably retain data in CMOS RAM.
Switchover at higher VCC voltages would decrease
backup-battery life. When VCC recovers, switchover is
deferred until VCC rises above the reset threshold (VRST)
to ensure a stable supply. VOUT is connected to VCC
through a PMOS power switch.
Manual Reset
A logic low on MR asserts reset. Reset remains asserted
while MR is low, and for tWP (200ms) after MR returns
high. This input has an internal 70µA pullup current, so it
can be left open if it is not used. MR can be driven with
TTL or CMOS logic levels, or with open-drain/collector
outputs. Connect a normally open momentary switch from
MR to GND to create a manual-reset function; external
debounce circuitry is not required.
Applications Information
These µP supervisory circuits are not short-circuit
protected. Shorting VOUT to ground—excluding power-up
transients such as charging a decoupling capacitor—
destroys the device. Decouple both VCC and VBATT
pins to ground by placing 0.1µF capacitors as close as
possible to the device.
Using a SuperCap as a Backup Power Source
SuperCaps are capacitors with extremely high capaci-
tance values (e.g., order of 0.47F) for their size. Figure 3
shows two ways to use a SuperCap as a backup power
source. The SuperCap may be connected through a
diode to the 3V input (Figure 3a) or, if a 5V supply is also
available, the SuperCap may be charged up to the 5V
supply (Figure 3b) allowing a longer backup period. Since
VBATT can exceed VCC while VCC is a bove the reset
threshold, there are no special precautions when using
these µP supervisors with a SuperCap.
Operation without a Backup Power Source
These µP supervisors were designed for battery-backed
applications. If a backup battery is not used, connect both
VBATT and VOUT to VCC, or use a different µP supervisor
such as the MAX706T/S/R or MAX708T/S/R.
Replacing the Backup Battery
The backup power source can be removed while VCC
remains valid, if VBATT is decoupled with a 0.1µF
capacitor to ground, without danger of triggering RESET/
RESET. As long as VCC stays above VSW, battery-back-
up mode cannot be entered.
Adding Hysteresis to the Power-Fail
Comparator
The power-fail comparator has a typical input hysteresis
of 10mV. This is sufficient for most applications where a
power-supply line is being monitored through an external
voltage divider (see the Monitoring an Additional Power
Supply section).
If additional noise margin is desired, connect a resistor
between PFO and PFI as shown in Figure 4a. Select the
ratio of R1 and R2 such that PFI sees 1.237V (VPFT)
when VIN falls to its trip point (VTRIP). R3 adds the
hysteresis and will typically be more than 10 times the
value of R1 or R2. The hysteresis window extends both
above (VH) and below (VL) the original trip point (VTRIP).
Connecting an ordinary signal diode in series with R3, as
shown in Figure 4b, causes the lower trip point (VL) to

coincide with the trip point without hysteresis (VTRIP), so
the entire hysteresis window occurs above VTRIP. This
method provides additional noise margin without com-
promising the accuracy of the power-fail threshold when
the monitored voltage is falling. It is useful for accurately
detecting when a voltage falls past a threshold.
The current through R1 and R2 should be at least 1µA
to ensure that the 25nA (max over extended temperature
range) PFI input current does not shift the trip point. R3
should be larger than 10kΩ so it does not load down the
PFO pin. Capacitor C1 adds additional noise rejection.
Monitoring an Additional Power Supply
These µP supervisors can monitor either positive or
negative supplies using a resistor voltage divider to
PFI. PFO can be used to generate an interrupt to the
µP (Figure 5). Connecting PFO to MR on the MAX704
and MAX806 causes reset to assert when the monitored
supply goes out of tolerance. Reset remains asserted
as long as PFO holds MR low, and for 200ms after PFO
goes high.
Interfacing to µPs with Bidirectional Reset
Pins
µPs with bidirectional reset pins, such as the Motorola
68HC11 series, can contend with the MAX690_/MAX704_/
MAX802_/MAX806_ RESET output. If, for example, the
RESET output is driven high and the µP wants to pull it
low, indeterminate logic levels may result. To correct this,
connect a 4.7kΩ resistor between the RESET output and
the µP reset I/O, as in Figure 6. Buffer the RESET output
to other system components.
Negative-Going VCC Transients
While issuing resets to the µP during power-up, power-
down, and brownout conditions, these supervisors are
relatively immune to short-duration negative-going VCC
transients (glitches). It is usually undesirable to reset the
µP when VCC experiences only small glitches.
Figure 7 shows maximum transient duration vs. reset-
comparator overdrive, for which reset pulses are not
generated. The graph was produced using negative-going
VCC pulses, starting at 3.3V and ending below the reset
threshold by the magnitude indicated (reset comparator
overdrive). The graph shows the maximum pulse width a
negative-going VCC transient may typically have without
causing a reset pulse to be issued. As the amplitude of
the transient increases (i.e., goes farther below the reset
threshold), the maximum allowable pulse width decreas-
es. Typically, a VCC transient that goes 100mV below the
reset threshold and lasts for 40µs or less will not cause a
reset pulse to be issued.
A 100nF bypass capacitor mounted close to the VCC pin
provides additional transient immunity.
